Embarkation

4 out of 5
It's an unusual process. Check in and security and in different buildings and you're bussed between them.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
MDR can be hit or miss but there’s always something worth trying. Buffet isn't for everybody all the time if you have particular tastes. Guys burgers and blue iguana is always reay good. The Italian restaurant is good as well.

Wonderful service. We've been on this ship multiple times. These people work hard.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Some wear and tear with an older ship and balconies could use some maintenance. Otherwise, it's nicely decorated and clean. Lovely atrium..

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
This is a huge interior room. It's in an unusual but not out of the way spot and square shaped. It connects to an identical room which we also had (9125) and it was the absolute best set up for two adults and two children. I would book this again and again. There's only 5 or 6 cabins like like it.

Ship tip

Use deck 5 to traverse the ship.

Ports of call

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

5 out of 5
Always love half moon cay even if there's not enough beach chairs. Just get in the calm beautiful water. We've done the horse back riding excursion and it was phenomenal.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We take our own luggage off 7am easy peasy.
